EDUCATOR TESTIMONIAL
Initially I became a Family Day Care Educator as I was able to work from home in the hours that suited myself and my family. It has now evolved to becoming a valued part of my day care children's lives and families. I think it is a wonderful experience being around children and watching them grow and develop into their own personalities.
PARENT TESTIMONIAL
I am a parent of three children, aged 16, 12 and 10. My eldest child commenced with family day care when he was two years old and my children have been with the Whitsunday Shire Family Day Care Scheme ever since. My girls Jazzmyn and Nahkeeta currently go to Sharanne's after school and in the school holidays. Her family are very welcoming and the environment is child friendly...

Our educator's are currently implementing The Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF).
The Early Years Learning Framework describes the principles, practice and outcomes essential to support and enhance young children's learning from birth to five years of age, as well as their transition to school. The Framework has a strong emphasis on play-based learning as play is the best vehicle for young children's learning providing the most appropriate stimulus for brain development. The Framework also recognises the importance of communication and language (including early literacy and numeracy) and social and emotional development.
